>How can i get the hostname from mac address ?? is there any
way??
There is not a one-to-one correlation between MAC
addresses and hostnames. The real problem you've got is that a MAC address
doesn't even need to have a hostname. It doesn't even need an IP
address! In fact, a dhcp client will broadcast its MAC address on the wire
waiting for an IP address and it's quite possible for it to be using any number
of protocols other than TCP/IP.
You can try running tcpdump and see if you can
capture the packets and you might be able to figure it from there, but nothing
is guaranteed.
